Does anyone know the size of the cane tips? I purchased this for my mother and two of the tips have worn down.

1/2" inch. I've replaced mine several times. It's a good cane. It coordinates well with my wardrobe!

Small base quad cane, fits 1/2" shaft. CVS and Rite Aid don't carry them but the Pharmacist might be able to order it for you. I found mine at a medical equipment/pharmacy here where I live, they're $4.99 for a 4 pack. Online they are more expensive than that but if you don't go through them very often it might be easier to order online. Good Luck John

yes, you get two tips for the posted price. So far they are working out very well. They are better than other tips I have had on my canes and crutches. I plan to buy another set (those will be my 3rd set).

The Hurrycane was send as a birthday gift to a friend of ours. I do believed the Quadruple Cane Tip fit on the original Hurrycane. I've seen him using it. FYI only !

I recommend you contact the company/manufacturer to make sure there is nothing wrong with the cane and have it replaced.

My cane is 3/4 " , the standard Walmart cane. Are you sure you have 1/2" ?The tip is so good I would wrap a 1/2 " with black duct tape and put it on the tip.

The diameter of the cane tip is a hair more than 3 1/4." It's the same tip I wrote about here, a while ago, and it's held up very well. Once in a while, the cane falls, and my wife rights it up with her foot, with no problem.

Maryann, I went to www.hurrycane.com; spoke with the guy who answered the phone about the problems with the feet. They sent me a whole new cane. I hope this help. Bob

I purchased the Hugo tip and love it. My cane is now a stand alone and fairly stable. Have had it fall a couple of times but it was my fault for both the tips.

not very sturdy. my dad goes to my house then my brothers and bought another cane to have at my ouse. His other cane the feet are wider, this one I was very disappointed in but did not return because shipping would be too expensive

The cane came tall enough for my six foot husband to use, we however, bought it for my 5 foot 2 Mother in law, so my husband cut it down to size for her, as we have had to do with most of the canes we have bought for her.

The cane is not heavy but the legs are long & higher off the ground so it tips easy. It was OK wen I was steady but as I became weaker it would tip over wen I leaned on. Many canes have shorter more spread out legs which would be safer at her age. My profession was caring 4 elderly b4 my handicap.

inside diameter..... fits 7/8" diameter cane.very cheap by the way, so I bought a CAREX cane tip much better quality.This one also has an ID of 7/8". Plus you get 2 per box!!

I purchased a set two months ago and they are STILL in GOOD SHAPE with very little wear showing -- IF ANY!!!. What I am trying to say basically is that every other cane tip I had ever purchased over the last 15 years of using a cane every day was basically trash that may last a few weeks if I were lucky. These are excellent cane tips that are totally remarkable! I had tried almost everything out there but I'm sold on Rain-Guard! I don't plan on buying any of that other junk as-long-as Rain-Guard is around!

Comes with a standard small round rubber cane tip. I changed the tip to a squarish pod tip which gave me greater stability. Loved that tip, but the rubber crumbled. I replaced it with another tip made of rubber and plastic, which held up well for several months with heavy use but now the plastic has worn down on the corners and the cane can skid on wet/snowy surfaces. Either of those tips allowed the cane to stand alone. If the cane fell over, I could step lightly on an edge and pop it back upright. This cane was so helpful for pre-surgery use and recovery from my total hip surgery.

I think it is also too wide for the tip of the folding cane to fit into tightly. You also wouldn't be able to fold the cane with the tip on, and it should be on tight enough that it shouldn't come off that easily. I bought this for my mom, who uses it on her sturdy canes, and more distant outdoor walking, where she relies on more support. She saves the folding cane for much shorter walks, or inside places, like restaurants or hotels - that type of thing.

( Yes it will fit 3/4 of and inch)The tip is designed for all standard canes like the one's from Walmart which are 3/4 of and inch. If your cane is 1/2 inch than this is more than likely an older cane's because the standard is 3/4 inch now. But you can wrap tape around it to make it a snug fit ,I am David Wainwright the inventor of this cane tip
